NOTIFICATION PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 12.1(C)  
OF THE AGREEMENT ON SAFEGUARDS  
EUROPEAN UNION 
Certain Steel Products  
Corrigendum* 
The following communication , dated and received on 17 January  2023 is being circulated at the 
request of the delegation of European Union.  * 
 
_______________  
 
 
Please note that paragraph (86) of page 19 of the original document (G/SG/N/10/ EU/Suppl.1 6) 
should read as follows:  
 
As a result of these concessions inscribed in the European Union's Schedule of Concessions and 
Commitments, annexed to the GATT and incorporated pursuant to Article II:7 of the GATT 1994, the 
European Union had, at the time of the safeguard determination, obligations incurred under the 
GATT 1994 notably as follows: Article XI:1, prohibiting non tariff restrictions on the importation of 
the above -listed products, and, importantly, Article II:1(a) and Article II:1(b), first and second 
sentences, of the GATT 1 994. Under Article II:1(b), first sentence, the EU is not allowed, absent an 
applicable exception, to impose ordinary customs duties on the product in question in excess of 
those set forth and provided in the relevant part of the EU's Schedule of Concessio ns and 
Commitments, i.e. the maximum rates pointed out above for each of the tariff lines covered. At the 
time of the original safeguard determination as well as of the imposition of the definitive 
safeguard measure, the EU's applied import tariffs on the product covered by the 
safeguard was 0 %.  In other words, for ordinary customs duties, these applied tariffs were already 
the maximum permitted under Article II:1(a) and Article II:1(b), first sentence, of the GATT 1994. 
As for other duties or charges, no flexibility existed under Article II:1(b), second sentence, for 
introducing additional other duties or charges than ordinary customs duties.

COMMUNICATION FROM THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC  
REVIEW OF ARTICLE II (MFN) EXEMPTIONS  
Written reply from the Dominican Republic to the question from the Republic of Korea 
(S/C/W/431 ) 
The following communication from the delegation of the Dominican Republic, dated 14 June 2023, 
is being circulated to Members of the Council for  Trade in Services.  
 
_______________  
 
 
QUESTION 37 FROM THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA ( S/C/W/431 , PAGE 6) ON PROFESSIONAL 
SERVICES, WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF THE REVIEW OF ARTICLE II (MFN) EXEMPTIONS  
Regarding the four reciprocity -based MFN exemptions under legal services, auditing and accounting 
services, dental, physiotherapy, medical, pharmaceutical and nursing services, architectural and 
engineering services, w e wonder whether these exemptions are based on any international 
agreements.  
 
Reply:  
In accordance with the GATS Annex on Article II exemptions, Members shall review the lists of 
exemptions devised  by each of them.  
 
The Dominican Republic grants MFN treatment to WTO Members. Regarding services, the 
Dominican  Republic's final list of exempt ions establishes restrictions on the provision of some 
professional services, such as legal, medical, nursing, auditing, architectural, and engineering 
services.  
 
The provision of these professional services is primarily regulated by Law No. 11 -42 on the 
professional exequatur, which establishes the national system governing and organizing the process 
for obtaining the exequatur for persons wishing to practise a profession who have obtained higher 
education degrees in academic institutions in the country or  abroad.  
 
In conclusion, these exemptions are based on the WTO principle of non -discrimination, and are 
applicable provided that Dominicans are not prohibited from exercising in the jurisdiction where the 
foreign professional is licensed to practi se.

The following communication, dated 4 February 2021 , addressed to the Chairperson of the Dispute 
Settlement Body (DSB), is circulated in accordance with Article  12.9 of the Dispute Settlement 
Understanding (DSU).  
 
_______________  
 
 
Article 12.8 of the Understanding on Rules and Procedures Governing the Settlement of Disputes 
(DSU) provides that the period in which a panel shall conduct its examination, from the date that 
the composition and terms of reference of the panel have been agreed upon until the date the final 
report is issued to the parties to the dispute, shall, as a general rule, not exceed six  months.  
 
Article 12.9 of the DSU pro vides that, when a panel considers that it cannot issue its report within 
six months, it shall inform the Dispute Settlement Body (DSB) in writing accordingly and indicate 
the reasons, together with an estimate of the period within which it will issue its report.  
 
The Panel in US – Steel and Aluminium Products (Russia)  (DS554) was established by the DSB on 
21 November 2018  and composed on 25 January 2019 .    
 
On 4 September 2019, the Panel informed the DSB that it expected to issue its final report to the 
parties no earlier than autumn 2020. However, due to the delays caused by the global COVID -19 
pandemic, the Panel now expects to issue its final report to the parties no earlier than the second 
half of 2021.  
 
I would be grateful if you would circulate this letter to the DSB.
